Who is Barack Obama?

The guy has been campaigning for the last nineteen months. I think we have a pretty good idea who he is. If you don't know who Barack Obama is at this point, you haven't been paying attention. If you haven't been paying attention, you're probably too friggin' dumb to be participating in a democracy and I'd appreciate it if you simply didn't bother to vote.

The real question is who the hell is Sara Palin? She's only been on that national scene for about 6 weeks. She refuses to do interviews and her ethics are being investigated by a Republican dominated legislature in her home state of Alaska. Her husband belonged to the Alaska Independence Party (AIP), a party that "has no use for American institutions" and wants Alaska to succeed from the union. She, herself, has recorded messages played at their annual conventions, complimenting them on their great work and wishing them every success. Her statements during this campaign are calculated to divide rather than unite this country.

Why isn't anyone asking who the hell Sara Palin is?
